Logs, metrics and traces at scale, without the bill shock - Melbourne

Never sample. Retain everything. Let your agents investigate.

Most teams make the same trade to keep their observability bill in check. They sample traces, shorten log retention, and roll up metrics. It works until something breaks, and the detail you need is already gone.

Join ClickHouse for a hands-on morning on running full-fidelity observability at scale, without the bill shock or the compromises. A ClickHouse solutions architect will show you how ClickHouse Observability keeps every log, metric and trace, with fast queries over high-cardinality data and low-cost, long-term retention. Pricing is simple and volume-based, with no monthly minimum. Then you’ll try it yourself.

Learn how you can send ClickHouse Observability your OpenTelemetry data, and follow an error to its root cause. Then connect your own AI agent through MCP and let it run an investigation alongside you. Finally, build your own custom app with the new Apps feature. You’ll leave with a working setup and a plan you can use straight away.

Global organisations including Netflix, Shopify, Sony LIV and Mercado Libre run observability on ClickHouse at scale.

Venue: Cliftons Melbourne, Level 1, 505 Little Collins Street, Melbourne VIC 3000

What ClickHouse Observability enables you to do as a practitioner

• Send and search. Point your OpenTelemetry data at a managed endpoint, search logs, and switch to SQL when you need to go deeper.
• Follow an error to its root cause. Use trace waterfalls, event patterns and event deltas to see what changed and why.
• Bring your own agent. Connect Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or your own agent to ClickHouse Observability through MCP. Give it purpose-built investigation tools (search logs, follow traces, compare events, query metrics) and let it investigate while you inspect every query and step. Then turn its findings into saved searches, dashboards and alerts your team can build on.
• Build your own app. Explore the new Apps feature in ClickHouse Observability and generate a custom app on top of your own telemetry, shaped around how your team actually works.

Why attend

• Fix the cost problem, not the symptoms. See how teams keep full-fidelity logs, metrics and traces without sampling, rollups or short retention.
• Put agents to work on real incidents. Learn how SREs and their agents can test hypotheses in parallel using fast, concurrent queries and the SQL agents already know.
• Make it yours. Go beyond dashboards and generate custom apps for your own workflows.
• Leave with a plan. Learn how to trial ClickHouse Observability next to your current tool.
• Meet your peers. Connect with Melbourne’s SRE and platform engineering community.

Who should attend SREs, platform and DevOps engineers, and engineering leaders hitting cost, scale or retention limits with their current logging and tracing setup. This includes teams comparing alternatives to Elastic, Datadog, Splunk or OpenSearch, and teams exploring how AI agents can help with incident investigation.

Save your seat The workshop is free to attend. Seats are limited so everyone gets help during the labs, so register early.
